Ohhh, How I LOOOVE this time of year! When I saw the beautiful weather we had in store for us on Saturday, I knew we'd be spending the day outdoors, and what better place to hang out on a beautiful fall day than a pumpkin patch? What a great day it was!

there was so much to do, we couldn't decide which direction to go first...

"Blue", the puppy from Blues Clues danced with us while we sang him the song we love... "Here's the mail it never fails it makes me wanna wag my tail, when it comes I wanna wail maiiiiiiil!"

the big wheeled trikes were super fun...

and so was the bucking bronco swing!

then there was the climb to reach Humpty Dumpty at the top of the wall...

plenty of sliding opportunities...

climbing galore...

we took a wagon ride out to the "real" pumpkin patch...

and scrutinized the pumpkins to get just the right ones...

then, we stopped by this big chair for a break, ha ha...

we took time for a snack of kettle corn and cotton candy, yummmm! Then Kayli promptly burned off her calories by taking another turn jumping around on the inflatable pumpkin, followed by a turn on the zip line, while I burned off a few measly calories by pulling our pumpkins in the wagon and snapping pictures (you know how that picture taking can work those arm muscles?!!!)

Here's a picture from the zip line, followed by a little video clip...
